oh how much fun you're going to have!!! we have several nesting pairs of cardinals in our yard every year. i can't see them from inside the house but 2 of them always build their nests in large bushes right off our front covered porch. i check on them every morning before i go to work! :)

What a gorgeous photo - and how exciting. I know you will make this into more amazing art - and if you could see the photos I have taken since reading your amazing book you would realise how it has changed my life. (Posted from a caravan on a campsite in the wetlands of Somerset UK, courtesy of the wonders of WiFi). P.S. Today I have been photographing herons nesting on twiggy rafts in the uppermost branches of an oak woodland. Spectacular.

Oh, Tracie - congratulations! You are so right - what a lovely, sweet miracle right at your own front door! They are a beautiful pair! We have house finches as well, but I have never had the privilege of seeing the nest. I still remember the day the proud parents brought all 5 fledglings to the birdbath - what a feast for the eyes! I cried with joy as I watched them testing the waters for the first time.Wishing you many magical nesting moments!
